    Hand 3 I don't like - calling raises OOP with easily dominated hands, hard to make EV+ this way even against lagtards

    Hand 6 - similar to 3 but slightly better if you play carefully

    Hand 1 and 5 - close, very close

    Hand 2 - nh

    Hand 4 - if you've been aggro and made similar moves before then this is probably the best way to play TPTK given preflop action, so nh

    hand 1: i'd felt too, but i'm not happy about it.
    hand 2: no, because i don't wanna see an A.
    hand 3: ugh, hero pukes and calls.
    hand 4: generally i don't like overbets without the nuts. i would call here, and call the turn, and call the river, baring reasonably sized bets.
    hand 5: did you see him overbet push without at least top pair? i'm not sure about this hand, looks like spew.
    hand 6: ugh, i call and i don't like it.

    most of these are puke and calls. i don't feel particularly happy about any of the hands, but i see no better alternatives.

    working myself up to FTR fullhouse status while not giving 1 solid piece of advice
    you felt against an 11/11/2 there on hand 1? yuck -

    course I just laid down Aces on the same flop against 2 players last night when I made my hand as obvious as possible and they check raised me all in - so i might be too much of a nit that hand they had KK and QQ and i was KILLING them

    You must be skinny. The only hand I felt uncomfortable felting was the first one.

    1) reminds me why I hate QQ in re-raised pots. Actually vs. an 11/11 I don't think I re-raise this PF.
    2) against a 55/33 a/i pre-flop is good against a tighter player I would be more careful.
    3) Fold PF or r/r to mix it up. As played pay off his 45
    4) I hate this. I just don't see this kind play with a draw much at $50NL - chances are if this guys' a regular he doesn't either and only calls with 2p+. Maybe AK. Hmmm... re-raised pot with a 17/13. Well, he has KK/AA/AK or is folding. Ugh, like hand 1. You just have to know his PF 3-bet range or this is pure gambool-ezzle
    5) He probably has TPNK
    6) I actually like this, assuming he's 70/30 aggro not passive. You are beat by 24 and sets. *shrug* if you lost it's just a cooler.

    Hand 1: Yuck. I think you're up against 1010... the only hand you really beat is JJ, and I think in that case villain knows you have QQ+ Maybe I'm weak but I fold the flop after being raised as I can't think of hands we're beating that play like this.

    Hand 2: This is what we want

    Hand 3: Fold PF, otherwise I play the same with a cringing call

    Hand4: I don't like this, you fold out hands you beat and are called by hands that beat you most of the time, but considering villains range i'm kind of baffled what he must have to call -- AA?

    Hand 5: Ballsy read...

    Hand 6: I feel like you need to bet either the flop or the turn to get a better feel for where you are at before river.

    Im tired/bored and I feel like giving results

    Hand 1: The 11/11 had AQo ld0
    Hand 2: He had A6o obv
    Hand 3: AK...ship it
    Hand 4: He calls with QQ...woot
    Hand 5: Great read but riverstars lets his ATo catchup
    Hand 6: He had 42o of course

    The only hand I had in question was the last one. I'm wondering how many of you 3bet PF with ATs there against a guy with his stats.
